Chesterfield sofa
Rs 4000
The Chesterfield became so trendy that “chesterfield” is synonymous with “couch.” Philip Stanhope, 4th Earl of Chesterfield in England, commissioned this classic leather sofa over 200 years old.
It features deep tufts in the upholstery; a back that is level with the arms; and a low seat with exposed legs. Some manufacturers use other materials, such as canvas, tweed, and denim.
The Lord himself commissioned the first of its kind because he required “furniture that would allow a gentleman to sit upright in the utmost of comfort allowing sitting without wrinkling the garment.” That made the Earl quite the trendsetter of his day.
